the weekend that adventure built

I'm going the way of the lazy river today because if you saw me right now I'd have to kill you. Holy scarecrow - but scarier. The floor is littered with graham crackers and ice cubes and Theo learned how to throw genuine back arching flail about tantrums today and and and and. Who cares.

I blogged about everyone's favorite thing .... weekend recap, baby.

If you don't watch it ... I'll never know. But Santa will.

(and Sebastian was a truck driver for Halloween - not a truck drive and yet I still have two burnt bricks of banana bread to show for my techy toil and kitchen negligence)



and if it won't play you can click here.

    ReplyDelete
  22. YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I had this inkling in the back of my..something or other, wondering if another bambino was heading your way. I got really excited by the "Guess what?....Yep!" at the beginning. Was slightly disappointed that it was only "Simon had the weekend off" (though I was super happy that you guys had record amount of FAMILY TIME). But, hold up, sneaky Grace on the loose!
    Many, many happy congratulations to you, Simace. My heart smiles for you!

    ReplyDelete
  23. I started the video thinking, "I wonder if they'll be a special announcement by the end of this." Ok, so I've always had this 6th sense that starts working right BEFORE someone tells me they're expecting a new little pumpkin and evidentially it works online, too. Creepy. I know.

    Congratulations!!! That is sooo exciting! Praying for your little one...and your bigger little ones :) God bless!

    ReplyDelete
  24. Love it! I laughed several times at the hilarious pics and commentary. But most importantly, congrats on your newest blessing!

Also, first comment ever, I might add :-) As I started playing this the thought crossed my mind that it might be an announcement, and I'm so glad I was right! Congratulations! Very excited for you and the whole camp :-) We have four, and it is the best! It's also messy, noisy, not-sleeping-y and whingy, but still the best! God bless! Katie

    ReplyDelete
  74. Congrats! I almost cried. Like a previous comment, I was excited with the "Guess what" and then slightly disappointed that it was only "Simon had the weekend off". Although I am sure that is wonderful enough on its own. You still managed to surprise me at the end.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  81. Yay for more Mini Simaces! Also, based on the comments, I may have been the only person in the world who had no idea this was baby announcement video until the actual ultrasound picture. I hope new baby sleeps like Joowia, has Bash's amazing pronunciation and diction, and Feo's perpetual good humor (as evidenced by Instagram). I promise to drink all the Moscato in your absence. Congrats!

    ReplyDelete
  82. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! At the start of the video it said "Guess what?" and I thought you might be making a little announcement. And then it said, "Simon was off all weekend" and I thought well, no announcement but I guess they were working on making an announcement. wink wink. And then THE ANNOUNCEMENT!! So happy for you guys! Y'all make the cutest babies. Can't wait to see what # 4 is going to look like!

    So happy for you guys.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  96. What wonderful news and what a great way to announce it! (Of course, I ruined the surprise by reading the comments first…) Hope you're feeling well, 3 kids outside and one in can be exhausting so guilt-free Netflix all day if you need to :)

    ReplyDelete
  110. I read through most of your comments and so far there's not a single, "haven't you kids figured out what causes that" post. I only had three so I can advise you on the ways of the fourth child, however, our fourth sibling in my nuclear family is a big wig Manhattan business attorney. I'm just so happy to see a new LIFE coming into your family! That's awesome-sauce!

    ReplyDelete

Y'all are just the cutest. (And seriously, I would take a slideshow tutorial, so consider this a formal request.)

    ReplyDelete
  123. I saw the video and thought, "She's pregnant!! yay!!" And then you kept teasing us and I thought you weren't... and then I couldn't last another minute, literally, and totally had to fast forward to the end. :) Congratulations!!!
